I think if he plays like a #6, and inbetween the CBs, that his qualities shine much better.

We all know this already, Pep doesn't do him many favours as a double pivot imo, he is like Busquets, brilliant as a 6, but not so good as a double 8.

But... I also think he could do a good job as an auxiliary CB, considering that we often shift to a back 3 with:

Laporte-----Dias----Walker

I don't see why Rodri can't rotate for Dias for some minutes (and partner Laporte or Ake), considering the Laporte-Dias duo has Laporte usually staying back, with Dias pushing up in also suits Rodri as well.

Those are the 2 ways to play him and get the best out of him.

As an aside, I wonder if Stones can rotate with Walker as a sort of defensive RB, he has atleast some pace, so maybe its possible.
 
Rodri isn't good enough. We need mobile DM in this league. Rodri will look good when he goes to continental club, but not suited for this league.
 
Didn’t make a single tackle or interception. Wasn’t particularly good with his passing. Only really looked up to it when the game slowed down to his pace in the last 30 minutes.

I’m not generally as down on him as a lot seem to be but that was a hugely underwhelming outing in a game where we should have controlled the midfield fairly comfortably
